Translation and World Englishes
The article discusses a rarely researched type of translation—intermediary translation, that is, translation from English as an International Language that serves as a lingua franca, or a mediating language in intercultural communication. World Englishes, or varieties of English, are characterized by their distinctive features that should be familiar to intermediary translators and interpreters, as they facilitate intelligibility, comprehensibili…
Legitimacy of varieties of English as a non-native language
The article discusses the status of varieties of a pluricentric language, such as Russian English, Chinese English, among others. Some linguists waive this status because the language system of these varieties is not based on their own norms but is grounded on the norms of other varieties, either British or American. However, speakers of these varieties use them as lingua francas for communication and their Englishes are easily recognized as non-…
Translingualism and intercultural narratives in Kiana Davenport’s “House of Many Gods”
Language and culture contacts resulting from the migration of population, as well as current geopolitical and technological processes, enhance the increase of translingual works that reveal symbiotic phenomena of languages and cultures in contact. However, there are still many unsolved problems in defining the translingual discourse and linguistic devices for creating it. The article discusses intercultural narratives in a novel by Kiana Davenpor…
China's English
Naming varieties of the Expanding Circle is a very controversial and much debatable issue (see Nelson & Proshina, 2020); therefore, it is a high-priority, pressing question, brought up for timely discussion by the English Today journal. Those who are negative or hesitant about the legitimacy of these varieties, prefer speaking about English in a country – for example, English in China . However, this naming proves to be deficient as it is ambiguo…
Lexico-semantic relativity and versatility in translation and intercultural communication
The aim of the article is to discuss translation regularities in correlations of words that denote culture-related phenomena that exist in many cultures or that are specific to certain cultures and languages. The focus is on Russian and English culturonyms. The authors dwell on the principle of functional dualism that claims that language can equally address internal and external cultures. This principle is developed in the new linguistic discipl…

Varieties of English and Kachru’s Expanding Circle
In this overview article, we present the motivations for compiling this issue of RJL and summarize the major premises of the World Englishes (WE) Paradigm. The focus is on the relations between the WE school of thought and the paradigms that branched from it, i.e. English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) and English as an International Language (EIL). The statuses of Englishes in the Kachruvian Expanding Circle that function mainly as lingua francas in i…

Elaborating on the Expanding Circle
While the Inner and Outer Circle varieties are recognized by all linguists and educationists, the status of any Expanding Circle English as a variety per se is still a subject of incessant discussions. This article, based on Russian English as a typical variety of the Expanding Circle, focuses on the reasons for misconceptions and inaccuracies. The author discusses the parameters for singling out varieties and their application to the Expanding C…
Intervarietal translation and the theory of intelligibility
The article discusses Larry Smith's contribution to the world Englishes paradigm, represented as his theory of three stages of understanding varieties of English in intercultural communication. The author argues that this pivotal theory is fundamental not only for teaching English as an International Language, but is also applicable to translation studies, where a new type of translation – from one variety to another variety of English – proves t…
The bilingual mind and what it tells us about language and thought
Yamuna Kachru's contribution to linguacultural studies
This paper summarizes the major theses Professor Yamuna Kachru developed in the field of linguaculture: the relations between language and culture, role of English diversity in enriching speaker's worldview, dependence of language dynamics on the change of the sociocultural context; cultural specifics of text types; the culture's effects on cognition; impact of social conventions and linguistic strategies on intercultural communication, and role …
Language revolution behind the cultural curtain
This paper focuses on the innovative, revolutionary features of the World Englishes paradigm that shook the education world in the late 20th century. I speak about key concepts that are salient to the paradigm, such as pluricentricity, diversity, functionality, and equality as articulated by Kachru, such as inclusivity and variability, as well as the controversies emerging in and related to education, for example, the struggle between prescriptiv…
English and Asian Flavor in Russian Advertising of the Far East
Glocalization of English in the Russian sociolinguistic setting can be observed in advertising that has been booming in Russia since the fall of the Iron Curtain. Many features of Russian ads—structural, semantic, and functional—have been influenced by English. In Asian Russia, advertising also bears traces of cultural influences from the neighboring countries, which makes it more colorful and distinctive. Formally, English influence is observed …

Intermediary translation from English as a lingua franca
The paper raises the question of intermediary translation from English as a lingua franca in communication between people belonging to Russian and East Asian cultures. This type of translation faces the controversy of two tendencies – a long-standing tradition of direct translation recommended by the Russian School of Orientalism and a tendency to follow English–Russian correspondences due to the fact that Asian loans have a Romanized form in Eng…
English-Russian language contacts
The paper reveals the beginning and development of English–Russian language and culture contacts generated by social history. Nine stages of the contact development characterized by different intensity and depth (starting from the sixteenth century until present) have been overviewed
